The original house at the corner of Boundary Road was demolished last week, to be replaced with a large sign on the flattened site.
Gartland Property, Geelong agent Adam Farrell said the Furnari family was promoting the potential development.
“The owner is putting it out there for any medical, allied health, dental practitioners, or vets, to build them purpose-built building to lease.
“He’s not got plans to build something specific, he will build to someone’s specifications.”
Mr Farrell said several parties in the medical field had already made inquiries about the property.
